| Description of the problem | I have a 2006 ford f-150 and upon removing the spark plugs at 60,00 miles, which aren't due to be done until 100,00 miles, the spark plugs broke off in the head. I have been a certified mechanic in the past so i know how to remove spark plugs. Ford should be issuing a recall on this problem. The problem is discussed a lot on internet sites and well documented to be a problem. |
